Comprehensive Energy Audit of Food Processing Industry

From past few decades power engineers gives more stress on energy conservation along with increase in the energy generation to meet the consumer demand which then automatically reduces the excess energy consumption without affecting the production. Energy conservation is an effective tool used to find out the gap between the actual energy requirement to run a load and the measured value of actual energy consumed by the load. This gap analysis can be done by referring the standards set by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency. In every energy intensive sector there is always an opportunity to save the energy. In most of the cases energy may save just by tuning the system up-to its set standards but in few cases energy conservation may possible by overhauling, upgrading or replacing the existing system. Management always prefers the recommendations or proposals given by auditor which attracts zero, low and high investment. Energy audit is not a fault finding technique, it is a tool to identify the gap between the actual parameters at which the machine or the system is running and the standards set by the BEE and the manufacturer. This tool is helpful to run a system or machine at its optimum efficiency.
